The
following photos were scanned from an old yellowing and crumbling
"Pictorial Section" of
The Pittsburgh Press (a defunct newspaper), dated September 28, 1924.
Some photos display a "source" and others do not. When a source
is visible it will be notated for that specific picture.

It
is not the intent of this website to plagiarize others work nor to lay
claim to such.

This is an attempt to salvage
remnants of Pittsburgh's photographic history of people and places for
those of us who came along later
in life and whose family
members may have appeared within the photos being presented.
Photos are presented here in greyscale and re-sized for viewing.

Some viewers of these
webpages were
children on September 28, 1924, or possibly parents, therefore I've chosen to show the
children's photos first, in no particular order, and I've re-typed the
photo captionsbeneath each photo for viewer
clarity. Following the children's photos area you will find other
photos "of the day",then a series of yesteryears
business
advertisements which were scannable. Enjoy!
